Witnesses urgently wanted: Motorists flee to Crash in Mönchengladbach!

Memelstraße, 41065 Mönchengladbach, Deutschland - Mönchengladbach - On Saturday, October 12th, a remarkable traffic accident on Memelstrasse in the Bonnenbroich district occurred around 1:15 p.m. A 20-year-old driver was slightly injured while his opponent of the accident fled. Such incidents not only raise questions about the people involved, but also for safety in road traffic.

The situation started when the 20-year-old and his passenger were traveling in a gray VW Passat. They noticed a black VW Polo, which was equipped with a license plate, which had recently been stolen to the passenger, also 20 years old. This warning had the two put on alert. They pursued the Polo over Genceickener Straße and tried to speak to the unknown driver at a red traffic light at the Schlossstraße corner of Schlossstrasse.

The escape attempt and the collision

The driver of the VW Polo ignored the red traffic lights and drove away at high speed. The two young men then followed the persecution. As a result, there was a serious collision: the Passat opened the polo and pushed it against a garden fence on the corner of Memelstraße and Scheulenstraße. The young driver suffered a minor injury.

After the impact, there was a brief discussion between the two drivers. However, the stranger decided to flee on foot and left the VW Polo. The police found in the first investigation that both the vehicle and the license plates had been stolen beforehand.

The Mönchengladbach police commissioner took over the investigation. The actual holder of the polo has already been contacted to find out any further information. The investigators are now looking for witnesses who may be able to report something to drive the two cars or the course of the accident themselves.

• Witnesses wanted: People who can provide relevant information are asked to report to the police on 02161-290.
• Accident location: Memelstraße, Bonnenbroich, Mönchengladbach.

Such events are not only tragic for those involved, but also show the importance of traffic safety. A more intensive formation of consciousness on the subjects of traffic and security is essential to avoid such incidents. Further information on this incident can be found here
